Verse
YLT
Young's Literal Translation
KJV
King James Version
Because
Israel `is'
a youth
, and
I love
him, Out
of
Egypt
I
have
called for
My Son.
When
Israel was
a child
, then
I loved
him, and
called my son out
of
Egypt
.
They have
called to
them rightly
, They have
gone
from before
them ,
To
lords
they do
sacrifice
, And to graven images they
make
perfume
.
As
they called them, so
they went
from them :
they sacrificed
unto
Baalim
, and burned
incense
to graven images.
And
I have
caused
Ephraim to go on
foot
, Taking them by their arms ,
And
they have
not known
that I strengthened
them.
I taught
Ephraim also
to go, taking them by their arms ;
but
they knew
not that I healed
them.
With cords of man I
do
draw
them
, With thick
cords
of love ,
And I am
to them as a
raiser
up
of
a
yoke on their jaws, And I incline
unto him
--
I
feed
`him'
.
I
drew
them
with cords of a
man, with bands
of love :
and I was
to them as they
that
take
off
the
yoke on their jaws, and I laid
meat
unto them
.
He turneth
not back
unto
the land of Egypt, And Asshur
--
he
`is'
his king, For
they have
refused to return.
He shall
not return
into
the land of Egypt, and the
Assyrian
shall
be
his king, because
they refused to return.
Grievous
hath
been
the sword in
his cities, And it
hath
ended
his bars
, and consumed
--
from
their own counsels.
And
the sword shall
abide
on
his cities, and shall
consume
his branches
, and devour
them,
because
of
their own counsels.
And My people are hanging
in
suspense,
about
My
returning,
And
unto
the Most High they
do
call
, Together
they
exalt not
.
And my people are bent
to
backsliding
from
me:
though
they
called
them
to
the most High, none
at
all
would
exalt him
.
How do
I give thee up, O
Ephraim? Do
I deliver thee up
, O
Israel? How do
I make thee as Admah? Do
I set thee as Zeboim? Turned in
Me is
My
heart
, kindled
together
have
been
My repentings.
How shall
I give thee up, Ephraim? how
shall
I deliver thee, Israel? how shall
I make thee as Admah? how
shall
I set thee as Zeboim? mine
heart
is
turned within
me, my repentings are
kindled
together
.
I do
not the fierceness of My
anger, I turn
not back
to destroy Ephraim ,
For God
I `
am '
, and not a
man .
In
thy
midst
the Holy One ,
and I enter
not in
enmity,
I will
not execute
the fierceness of mine
anger, I will
not return
to destroy Ephraim :
for I am God
, and not man ;
the Holy One in
the
midst
of
thee:
and I will
not enter
into
the
city.
After
Jehovah
they go
--
as
a lion He
roareth,
When He doth
roar, then tremble
do
the sons
from the west.
They shall
walk
after
the
LORD:
he
shall
roar
like
a lion :
when he shall
roar, then the children
shall
tremble
from the west.
They tremble as a sparrow
out of Egypt, And as a dove out of the land of Asshur,
And I have
caused
them to
dwell
in their own
houses, An
affirmation
of
Jehovah
.
They shall
tremble as a bird
out of Egypt, and as a dove out of the land of Assyria:
and I will
place
them in their houses, saith
the
LORD
.
Compassed
Me with feigning
hath
Ephraim
, And with
deceit
the house of Israel .
And
Judah again
is
ruling
with God, And with
the
Holy
Ones
`
is '
faithful !
Ephraim
compasseth
me about
with lies
, and the house of Israel with
deceit:
but
Judah yet
ruleth
with God, and is faithful with
the
saints.
